    All right, thanks! I'd give some XP if I didn't need to spread some around.

    D&D 5E Does anyone who got an mm at Gencon want to offer up spoilers to us?

    PC Vampires? I've a player who wants to play one -- do they have an LA, or something else that might keep us from throwing one into the party?

    Pathfinder 1E Pokemon mystery dungeon, am I the only one wo thinks this would be a great campaign setting?

    I've not played the 3rd Gen game, but the plot for the first two generations was pretty much . I'm not really convinced it would make a decent campaign setting, and the work needed to craft a way to convert a bunch of 'mons to the GM's system of choice wouldn't be worth it. Perhaps the plot...

    D&D 5E Scaling Phandelver for 6 PCs

    I wouldn't worry too much about scaling up the adventure -- I ran most of Phandelver for six new players, and they had a pretty rough time of it. Granted, many of their choices weren't always the greatest, one of the two PC deaths was because of sheer foolishness (one player jumped from the top...

    D&D 5E Paper Minis

    Some users at the Giant in the Playground forums have made some printable OotS-style minis for free: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?222749-(Monster-Minis!)-The-OotS-Style-Monster-Manual-Art-Project They are rather cartoonish, which may or may not be to your taste. :/

    Which version of D&D is your favorite now?

    5e. It's the edition I've been wanting for a long time. I started playing D&D by running the 3.5 boxed set (which only allowed play to level 2!). I've since bounced around a few different systems. Full 3.X wasn't my cup of tea as a DM (did an extraordinary ability grant an AoO, or was it a...

    D&D 5E What are you going to keep from previous editions/other d20 games?

    Here's my list: After level 10, players won't gain a full HD, but instead +X based on class, like AD&D. I may also stop spell progression and extra attack gains, to get a sort of E6-style cap. I really like 13th Age's Escalation Die, and will probably bring that over. I may also bring over the...

    D&D 5E What monster are you hoping to see in the 5B update?

    I need stats for the owlbear so I can convert that Dungeon module in which the party races an owlbear up a mountain, competing against a few other parties.

    D&D 5E So, who's ready to Gestalt 5E?

    Pact of the Blade Warlock/Battle Master Fighter. Lots of special things to do with my attacks.

    D&D 5E Hoard of the Dragon Queen (D&D Encounters version)

    Sweet. I'm planning on getting the published adventures but not the MM immediately ('cause money), so this is great to hear. Thanks!

    D&D 5E Vote for your favourite 5E cover art!

    I love the menacing-looking Beholder; I voted the MM. I like the Starter Set's nod to the boxes of yesteryear, but the PHB, DMB, and Tyrrany of Dragons adventures don't do it for me. They just seem removed from what I imagine in my head. :/

    D&D 5E Hoard of the Dragon Queen (D&D Encounters version)

    I wonder if they'll be in the Basic Rules when it gets updated with monsters.

    Is Wee Jas included in the Greyhawk pantheon? What domain(s) is(/are) suggested?

    D&D 5E Concepts you really want to play but not sure if you will be able to pull off.

    Huh. This actually sounds pretty good! So, if I've got this correct, a Cleric 6/Wizard 3 would have 4 1st level slots, 3 slots each for 2nd, 3rd, and fourth level spells, and 1 5th level spell slot, knows 4 Cleric cantrips and 3 Wizard cantrips, and (assuming an ability score of 16 in WIS and...

    D&D 5E Concepts you really want to play but not sure if you will be able to pull off.

    A Cleric of a deity of magic who can cast some Wizard spells. I had a lot of fun in the playtest with my Cleric of Wee Jas (as the Arcanist archetype), but if That Unholy Book is to be believed, the Knowledge domain won't be much of anything like the Arcanist Cleric. I could multiclass...

    D&D 5E How Are People Handling Cover?

    From the Basic PDF (p. 74): "A target can benefit from cover only when an attack or other effect originates on the opposite side of the cover." I would interpret that as the first case you've presented, where only C would have cover. An argument could be made for the second case, though. :/ My...

    Learn about D&D organized play options

    Hello! I've a quick question: I'm part of a group of DMs who are students at a Job Corps facility (all of us new to organized play), with an ample residential student population (and a surprising number interested in D&D). While the campus is usually closed off away from people who aren't...
